Sleep Apnea In Children Symptoms
Sleep Apnea?
I recently read that excessive sweating in children is a symptom of sleep apnea.
My daughter is about 3 and used to sweat really bad as a baby but doesnt anymore.
My son is almost 1 and is the same way. He sweats SO bad while he sleeps, it amazes me that he cant sleep with a blanket even when his skin is cold to the touch. He sleeps with a binki so he doesnt breathe through his mouth all the time. But he fusses all through out the night. I always figured it was because he was hot because he thrashes around while he’s fussing.
Could this be sleep apnea or could I just have hot natured babies?
they can’t regulate their own temperature so if he’s hot it’s because the room or his clothing is making him hot. Same if he’s cold. After 1 they gain this ability so I think that’s why you saw it in your 3 year old as a young baby but not so much now. I’m not saying it can’t be apnea, but just saying be careful to eliminate the obvious first because the risks of SIDS increase dramatically with overheated babies. Maybe he’s fluctuating temperature up and down a lot and that’s why he sweats but feels cold at times when you check him. Their temperature can be felt at the back of the neck and the chest, so be sure you aren’t just checking his arms/hands and they feel cold since that could just be circulation and actually he is very hot/too hot. Anyway, like I said maybe it is sleep apnea – I’d be curious to hear if either parents have it (my husband does terrible and so does his mother so I’d like to look into it myself) and I’m sorry if preaching to the choir but maybe someone else will read this and not overheat their baby thinking it’s possibly a peculiar sleeping condition.
